ORDER

1. S. A. MAHMOOD (CHMRMAN).‑‑ By Notification, dated 4th December 1970, the appellant has been removed from service with immediate effect on charges of misconduct and corruption stated to have been proved against her. She is no more a Government servant as defined in clause (c) of section 2 of the Punjab Civil Services (Appellate Tribunals) Ordinance, 1970. A As an appeal under section 8 of the Ordinance is only competent, by a Government servant, this appeal is no longer competent though at the time of filing her appeal she was a Government servant.

2. The appellant has taken steps to remove by writ the order of her removal from service, but her petition has not yet been admitted, and even if it is admitted, it may take many years to decide. Therefore, we do not consider it advisable to g postpone the hearing of this appeal sine die. We dispose of this appeal for the time being to be restored in case the status of the appellant as Government servant is restored. This appeal is, therefore, disposed of as such.
